I'm just starting up myself, haven't even launched yet, but when I do, I'm hoping in 2 years when I'm done with school I'll be able to support myself just from my VA business, or possibly just work parttime elsewhere while running my VA business, but the goal is definitely to work for myself full time at some point.

That will definitely be what I plan to do - its very exciting but pretty scary at the same time!

I am currently working out of my home but my dream is to work for myself. I work in medical records and have a lot of administrative skills. I am currently also attending school online to get my associates in healthcare management and I am also a medical assistant. Hopefully all I am doing now and have done will help me build my buisness and make my dream come true.

I have been doing this a LONG time, but not full-time, and it's a scary! I've been tempted to try to get a full-time job and keep a few clients I really love for night and weekend work, but I really want to do ONLY this full-time. __________________ Pam Deyerle - Transcriptionist in the Richmond, Virginia area The Perfect Word Transcription Services
